  • Abstract
    The paper presents a new sense-amplifier based flip-flop. The output latch of proposed circuit can be considered as an hybrid solution between the standard NAND based SR latch and the N-C2MOS approach. New solution provides ratioless design, reduced short circuit power dissipation and glitch free operation. Proposed flip-flop, designed for a 0.25μm technology, exhibits improvements in clock-to-output delay and power dissipation with respect to recently proposed high-speed flip-flops.
